What the study statuses mean

This study's is highlighted.

Recruitment status, easiest to join first

Recruiting now
This trial is taking on new participants right now.
Not yet recruiting This study
Registered, but not yet taking participants.
By invitation only
Not open to general applications. Only people the study team invites can take part.
Paused
Paused for now. It may or may not start again.
Ongoing
Running, but no longer taking on new participants.
Completed
The trial has finished. Results may not be published yet.
Stopped early
Stopped early, before it reached the end. That can be for many reasons, including safety.
Cancelled
Cancelled before anyone took part.

Expanded access (not trials)

Expanded access
Not a trial. This treatment can be requested outside a study, case by case, for people who qualify.
Expanded access (paused)
Not a trial. The treatment can normally be requested outside a study, but is unavailable right now.
Expanded access (ended)
Not a trial. The treatment could once be requested outside a study, but no longer can.
Approved
The treatment has been approved, so it is available normally rather than through this programme.

When the status isn't known

Details not published
The full record has not been published yet, so there is little to show here.
Status unknown
This status has not been confirmed recently, so it may be out of date.

Summary

This study looks at whether the biological age of a person's blood vessels, measured before heart surgery, can help predict their risk of acute kidney injury afterward. Researchers will assess vascular aging using noninvasive tests and routine lab results in about 470 adults undergoing cardiac surgery. The goal is to see if these markers can identify patients who might need closer monitoring or preventive steps after their operation.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.

What this could lead to
If vascular aging markers predict kidney injury, doctors could identify high-risk patients before surgery and tailor monitoring or preventive care.
What could go wrong
This is an observational study, not a treatment trial. It can only show associations, not cause and effect. Results may not apply to other hospitals or populations.

Who can take part

This study's own entry requirements. Only the study team can say for certain whether you qualify.

Who is studied

The study population will consist of adult patients undergoing cardiac surgery at Nanjing First Hospital, Nanjing Medical University. Eligible patients will receive perioperative vascular aging assessment and postoperative renal function monitoring according to the study protocol. Participants will be followed for postoperative acute kidney injury within 7 days after surgery.

Ages

18 years and older

Sex

Anyone
